5 Features
5.1 Gyroscope Features
The triple-axis MEMS gyroscope in the MPU-60X0 includes a wide range of features:
 Digital-output X-, Y-, and Z-Axis angular rate sensors (gyroscopes) with a user-programmable full-
scale range of ±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000°/sec
 External sync signal connected to the FSYNC pin supports image, video and GPS synchronization
 Integrated 16-bit ADCs enable simultaneous sampling of gyros
 Enhanced bias and sensitivity temperature stability reduces the need for user calibration
 Improved low-frequency noise performance
 Digitally-programmable low-pass filter
 Gyroscope operating current: 3.6mA
 Standby current: 5µA
 Factory calibrated sensitivity scale factor
 User self-test
5.2 Accelerometer Features
The triple-axis MEMS accelerometer in MPU-60X0 includes a wide range of features:
 Digital-output triple-axis accelerometer with a programmable full scale range of ±2g, ±4g, ±8g and
±16g
 Integrated 16-bit ADCs enable simultaneous sampling of accelerometers while requiring no external
multiplexer
 Accelerometer normal operating current: 500µA
 Low power accelerometer mode current: 10µA at 1.25Hz, 20µA at 5Hz, 60µA at 20Hz, 110µA at
40Hz
 Orientation detection and signaling
 Tap detection
 User-programmable interrupts
 High-G interrupt
 User self-test
5.3 Additional Features
The MPU-60X0 includes the following additional features:
 9-Axis MotionFusion by the on-chip Digital Motion Processor (DMP)
 Auxiliary master I
2
C bus for reading data from external sensors (e.g., magnetometer)
 3.9mA operating current when all 6 motion sensing axes and the DMP are enabled
 VDD supply voltage range of 2.375V-3.46V
 Flexible VLOGIC reference voltage supports multiple I
2
C interface voltages (MPU-6050 only)
 Smallest and thinnest QFN package for portable devices: 4x4x0.9mm
 Minimal cross-axis sensitivity between the accelerometer and gyroscope axes
 1024 byte FIFO buffer reduces power consumption by allowing host processor to read the data in
bursts and then go into a low-power mode as the MPU collects more data
 Digital-output temperature sensor
 User-programmable digital filters for gyroscope, accelerometer, and temp sensor
 10,000 g shock tolerant
 400kHz Fast Mode I
2
C for communicating with all registers
 1MHz SPI serial interface for communicating with all registers (MPU-6000 only)
 20MHz SPI serial interface for reading sensor and interrupt registers (MPU-6000 only)
